Description
We focus our attention on brewing rustic, unfiltered, aromatic beers that are approachable and unique. We pull from our home brewing background to build beers that pay homage to tradition, but break new ground in American brewing techniques and flavors by blurring the line between beer and wine. We are brewers of big ideas in very small batches.

Can at home shared with Laura. Golden color, white head. Aroma and flavor are lightly malts, hops, green hops lightly, light pine in the background. Decently bitter. Quite well balanced and pretty good.

Poured from a 750 ml bottle. Aroma is moderately grape forward with some must and tannins. Moderately fruity with fruit punch and stone fruit notes. Light grain and alcohol notes. Hints of oak. Pours a slightly hazy, reddish pink with a medium sized, thick, frizzy, slightly pink head that recedes quickly to the edges where it lingers for a bit. No lacing and small legs. Flavor is somewhat sweet with hints of acidity and light grain notes. Medium light bitterness and light alcohol notes. Fairly grape forward with quite a bit of tannins and must. Lighter tropical fruit punch notes with hints of stone fruit and lemon. Light oak notes. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium high carbonation. Fairly dry finish. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a solid, grape-forward saison. I'm not sure I would choose this over the Silent Spaces I had last night, but both are good and this is excellent in its own way.

Poured from a 750 ml bottle. Aroma is slightly fruity with lemony, green grape notes. As it warms you pick up some stone fruit, especially cherry. Medium light malt notes with some of the buckwheat and spelt coming through. Hints of alcohol and oak. Faint phenolics Pours a slightly hazy, golden color with a medium sized, somewhat thick, fluffy, white head that recedes fairly quickly to a small film that lingers. Light lacing and faint legs. Flavor has a light sweetness and medium light acidity. Quite a bit of buckwheat and spelt come through in the flavor. Medium bitterness and light alcohol notes. Moderately fruity with notes of peach, apricot, cherry, and lighter notes of tropical fruit, lemon and grape. Light earthy, peppery phenolics. Hints of oak. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a really solid saison. Great fermentation notes adding some nice fruitiness and just a touch of phenolics. Malt character really shines, especially in the flavor. Very enjoyable.
